4 Wks Out- Bench Attempts to 480

Tonight was 3 full touch attempts.. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd (PR) attempts with touch and commands.

1st attempt - 425
2nd attempt - 450
3rd attempt - 480 (pr)

A couple of self-critiques here-
a. I lacked speed off the chest all night. I feel I didn't keep the chest plate tight enough by retracting my shoulder blades hard enough. This combined with my 15lb lower body weight caused the shirt to be looser, and lose pop off the bottom.

b. I developed a bad habit of lifting my toes as I drive my heels into the ground when benching.

I still feel I can hit 480 on a third attempt if I stay tighter on the bench.



Accessory:
3 sets of Bench Dips of 25 reps each
50 Reps of Band Flyes
